What are your favorite protein bars?



Recommended Posts

I finally found one that I like...Robert Irvine's Fit Crunch in chocolate Chip Cooke Dough. It has 190 calories, 16 g of Protein, 8 g of Fat, 14 g of Carbs, 3 total g of sugar. I'm looking for a really good chocolate mint one. What has everyone else found?

I like although they might not be as good calorie wise. Luna Lemon and Larabar Almond cranberry with chia seeds in it. I like the softer varieties but am bio l ebtly allergic to chocolate. And you are right, all Vega products are too good to be,limited to vegans.

I used Quest Protein Bars. These bars were good in that they had high Protein, minimal sugar and also contained Fiber. They also came in a lot of different flavors. Fiber helps with issues of Constipation.

Protein bars are good when you are on the go and can't drag along a blender in order to mix a Protein Shake.

A Quest Protein Bar contains 220 calories and provides 21 grams of protein. A Muscle Milk Light protein shake [2 scoops of powder in a 16 ounce glass] contains 210 calories and provides 25 grams of protein. So they are comparable.

I like the flavor and texture of Quest bars, but I still can’t pass them down very well. I was sleeved four months ago and even though I chew them down very well, they get stuck as when I had the lap band.

I’ve been eating the Premier Protein bars w/ 30g of Protein. I only have these when I’m on the run. I get full with half a bar and will save the other half for lunch or dinner. BTW these are 290-300 calories.

I love the Oatmega bars (50g) 14g of Protein, 200 calories. The chocolate mint bar is my favorite (I cant stand the Quest Chocolate mint because of the aftertaste). The sell these at Walmart.

I use Quest and Pure Protein bars the most often.
I also use Kay's Naturals Protein Snacks (not bars, but soy protein based snacks that come in sweet, salty, spicy, cheesy, options, some are like pretzels, some are cereals, some are little cookie bites. low cal, decent protein and they taste great)
I also use Larabars to snack on, but not for "protein".
Simply Protein chips are pretty good time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
